Haliey Welch, the Tennessee woman known online as the Hawk Tuah Girl and often searched as Hailey Welch, has said plainly that she does not want to sell feet pics. Speaking to TMZ in a clip that Complex reported on 15 July 2024, she said her messages were full of requests for toes, called them kind of creepy and made clear she was not interested. No official foot photo set, sale or shoe deal has followed.
This page uses TMZ, Complex, Rolling Stone, People, Law360 and her own verified Instagram. Images on gallery sites that carry her name are not something she released, and none is reproduced here.

The only statement she has made about her feet came in that July 2024 TMZ clip. Asked what her messages looked like after going viral, she said a quick scroll showed one repeated request, toes, toes, toes.
Complex quoted her saying they wanted pictures of her toes and that she did not want to sell them. The same report noted that she also ruled out starting a subscription page. She added that she rarely checked her messages at all.
For a reader arriving from a search, that answer settles the main question. Any image presented as her feet pics on a gallery site is a crop from a public photo or a fake, not a release she approved.
That is also why searches for Hailey Welch feet pics so often lead to recycled screenshots. The same handful of public photos are cropped, renamed and reposted across gallery sites, usually with no date and no photographer credit, which makes them impossible to trace back to an original source.
Beyond the TMZ quote, the usual questions asked about public figures draw a blank for her. No reliable outlet has described a barefoot red carpet moment, reported a pedicure colour or mentioned a foot injury.
Footwear is equally quiet. Her business deals have centred on merchandise and her podcast, and no shoe or sandal brand has announced a partnership with her. Her shoe size has never been published, so any number on a fan page has no source behind it.
The clip that made her famous was filmed on Broadway in Nashville by the street interview channel Tim and Dee TV and posted in June 2024. Within days it was everywhere on TikTok, Instagram and YouTube.
She told People that she quit her job at a spring factory because she could not take time off for the travel her new fame required, and by late June 2024 Rolling Stone was reporting on her licensed merchandise with Fathead Threads, a Tennessee apparel brand. In early July she filed to trademark the Hawk Tuah phrase through her company 16 Minutes LLC, a name Complex described as a joke on fifteen minutes of fame.
The summer kept moving fast. She threw the ceremonial first pitch at a New York Mets game in August 2024, and Talk Tuah was announced on 3 September 2024, with its first episode, featuring the comedian Whitney Cummings, released on 10 September.
The posts below come from her verified Instagram. They are everyday photos rather than styled fashion shoots, so any shoes in frame are incidental to a trip, a day outdoors or a podcast announcement.
The earliest of the four, from July 2024, is a photo dump captioned Just been living lately, taken during her first summer of fame and showing her with a horse in jeans and a cowboy hat.
The California trip post from August 2024 is the clearest footwear moment on her page, with tall white boots worn over a short denim dress outside a lakeside venue.
Her rise hit a wall in December 2024. People reported that a cryptocurrency token she promoted, launched on 4 December, crashed within a day. Investors sued the people behind the token, although the suit did not name her.
Talk Tuah went quiet for several months. On 27 March 2025 her lawyer James Sallah told TMZ that the US Securities and Exchange Commission had closed its investigation without making any findings against her, and Law360 reported the same news days later.
The podcast returned on 8 April 2025, now run by her own company after a split with Betr Holdings. In March 2026 she told Andrew Callaghan of Channel 5 that the episode had left her traumatised and wary of crypto.
Her first name is spelled Haliey and pronounced like Hailey, which explains why so many searches use the more common spelling. Both forms point to the same person and the same verified account.
Gallery and wiki sites attach nail colours, favourite heels and shoe sizes to her name without an interview or photo credit. The rule on this page is simple. A claim about her feet stays out unless she said it or a named outlet reported it, and by that standard the July 2024 TMZ interview is the only statement about her feet on record as of October 2026.
